Viva Italia! At Vilnius Town Hall \u2013 The Renowned Italian Piano Duo Ammara\u2013Prosseda<\/strong><\/p>\n

For more than two decades, the renowned Italian piano duo Ammara\u2013Prosseda has captivated audiences in prestigious concert halls around the world.

Audiences of the International M. K. \u010ciurlionis Music Festival will have a special opportunity to hear both artists not only as a piano duo, but also as soloists. The programme brings together the dramatic Pages of War by Alfredo Casella, the poetic Impromptus of Franz Schubert, the virtuosic \u00c9tudes of Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Chopin, and one of the great masterpieces of piano ensemble repertoire \u2013 Schubert\u2019s Fantasy in F minor for piano four hands.<\/p>\n

We invite you to experience the magic of piano artistry \u2013 filled with elegance, sensitivity and the joy of musical collaboration.<\/p>\n
